AI Agents

Adept AI raised $415M to pioneer computer-use AI agents; its core research and agent team moved to Amazon in 2024 in a landmark talent acquisition while the company continues developing ACT-1 for enterprise automation.

About

Adept AI was founded in 2022 by a team of former OpenAI, DeepMind, and Google Brain researchers to build AI that can take actions on computers — navigating software interfaces, filling forms, and executing multi-step workflows in any application. Its ACT-1 model demonstrated the ability to control web browsers and desktop applications through natural language instructions, pioneering the computer-use agent paradigm that Anthropic later commercialized with Claude's computer use feature.
